Clue/Question: For it’s new sauce, the company gathered data they could – – –
Answer: POUR OVER
(Just call me Uncle Chucklehead! I thought I had unscrambled all four jumbles, and even figured out the final answer, with the answer letter layout – that I had come up with. As I started to post this supposed spoiler, WordPress let me know that NODUAL is not a word! Fancy that! For half a second I considered what I like to call “the Limey Affect”, but quickly realized I was thinking of NODULE. Duh, and/or Doh! So, I looked at the answer letter layout a little more closely, and realized: Hey! The final answer don’t need no N! Well, at least the U was right. That pretty much told me it had to be UN-something. UNDOAL was a no go, but I quickly came around to UNLOAD . . . my hubris.
And, I was SO excited about declaring a new clue word for today! Well, it would have been a very new clue word IF the letters had worked out perfectly. But alas, all of today’s clue words are old friends. Two of the jumbles are new, with both “greve” and “barrho” having been used before. The answer letter layout was a fine jumble. I’m very visual – hey, I’m a dude – so I was able to see the answer, despite my mistake.
Lots to like in the cartoon. The girl has EEG sensors on her head, leading to the computer. The scientist looks a little like our Jeff. I noticed he’s not working on an Apple computer, but on a Pineapple computer! Very clever. I wonder where I can find “Moo Ice Cream”? Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

The November 3 puzzle should have had quotes around “pour” since “pore” is what you do over date.
Hmm! You may have a point there, Chuck! Hey, Hoyt! Are you reading these comments??? — YUR
Well POUR or PORE (and it is PORE) , UNLOAD gave me fits. AND, I even went through UN words to start off…AND I diagrammed out the whole word beginning with each individual letter. Then, finally, UNLOAD — totally diabolically jumbled IMHO! Unc, I also had NODUAL and UNDOAL and many more UN-non-words!
If the answer had been “PORE” OVER, I probably would not have gotten the answer so easily. BUT that UNLOAD held me up TWO days! LL
